That's such a sad loss for Blackburn, they had the chances, they had the shots, but they just wouldn't go in! I mean its sad to see for there fans and team really, even the manager, its not even his fault, the players just can't get those goals they need. Its like Torres for chelsea(but except I love Torres), he showing he can do the work, he will score soon, but he's just unlucky, Blackburn similar. The first Newcastle goal was a huge deflection giving the goalie minimum chance, and there behind early, then Blackburn miss a penalty, can't finish and then 90th minute Obertan tucks in a cool finish to get 3 points for Newcastle, Blackburn deserved atleast a goal in this game, tough luck!

Both teams had their chances - the main difference was that Newcastle took them well, Blackburn on the other hand did not. Horrible luck played its part with the first goal, Scott Dann's deflection sending Robinson the wrong way in an attempt to save Ryan Taylor's shot, the second goal was a cool finish by Gabriel Obertan. Tim Krul continued his great form with a penalty save (even with a soft penalty given) and saving the followup as well.

Sad for Blackburn, they worked hard but got nothing. It's more or less the story of their season really

This was highway robbery. We had 69% possession, 30 something chances, played Newcastle off the pitch against Newcastle's 4 chances, still they get two goals. I blame Kean's squad selection, Petrovic was played out of position with better options on the bench, and Petrovic's mistakes cost us the game
